Chapter 11

Sasuke slowly opened his eyes and looked around. He couldn't really remember why he was lying in a hospital bed. He closed his eyes again and relaxed. His head was hurting and he felt like he hadn't slept for days. Images flashed before his closed eyes and suddenly it all came back.

Naruto. His heart.. It stopped. His heart had stopped beating.. Sasuke flung out of bed and hit the ground hard. He groaned as the air got knocked out of him. Sasuke stayed down, why should he even get up? It wasn't like he could change anything. The door opened and Sakura looked questioningly down at him.

"What are you doing down there?" Sasuke tried to get out of the humiliating position, but his legs had gotten tangled up in the cover in his hurry to get out. Sakura quickly shook his head

"Doesn't matter, I just wanted to see if you were up and ask if you wanted to see Naruto, since he has woken up" Sasuke turned to look at Sakura so quickly his neck hurt.

"What?" He almost screamed.

"He died?" Sasuke sounded a bit unsure. He had seen it, he had heard it. He was sure it was real, it wasn't just something he had dreamt.

"Well I got his heart to work again after you... passed out. He just woke up, but I should tell you he is extremely groggy" Sasuke was already out the door before she could finish her sentence. He almost ran to the door but stopped with his hand on the handle. Should he really do this? Hadn't he decided he was too emotionally invested in Naruto and he should keep away from him? He heard something shatter and was inside before he knew it. Naruto looked at him with wide eyes

"Wha-" Sasuke raised his hand to hit him, but stopped right before Naruto's cheek.

"You idiot" Sasuke screamed. Sasuke could feel a stinging in his eyes and the lump that was slowly building up in his throat. Naruto gave him a small smile

"Hey Sasuke, good to see you here.. I didn't think you would come visit me" His smile and how he awkwardly rubbed the back of his neck was too much for Sasuke. He was back, he wasn't dead. Sasuke stormed out, he couldn't let him see him act so emotionally.

"Good bye then.." Naruto said after him and sighed. Sasuke really hated him, he had believed they had made some kind of connection before, but that was obviously wrong. Sai slowly walked inside the door and Naruto couldn't help but feel a little disappointed it wasn't Sasuke who came back.

"So how are you feeling?"

"Like someone has mauled my body and then run it over a couple of times" Sai went over beside the bed and felt something under his shoe.

"What happened?" Sai asked as he looked at the broken glass on the floor.

"My body couldn't lift it" Naruto said bitterly. "My arm is still shaking slightly from the strain"

"You have been poisoned and your heart literally gave up at the end, I would be amazed if your body would be okay"

"Still I hate being confined to a bed. I guess I won't be able to take on any missions for a long time" Sai didn't know how to cheer him up, he wasn't really all that good with feelings.

"Don't worry, Sasuke has asked for a replacement for you until you're okay"

"A replacement" Sai winced as he saw the dejected look on Naruto's face, that hadn't been as comforting as he thought.

"Yeah, so just concentrate on getting well and come back" Naruto gave him a small smile, but even Sai could see straight through it.

"Cheer up" He tried to gently pat him on the head.

"I'm not a dog Sai" Naruto sounded a bit annoyed, but the smile that tugged at his lips was real.

"Have you talked with Sasuke?"

"He hates me, so there wasn't really any talk done between us"

"He doesn't hate you"

"He does"

"Stop being so stubborn. He doesn't hate you. He stayed by your bed for almost two weeks"

"He did" The hope on Naruto's face was so obvious that Sai couldn't stop the small smile from happening.

"Yeah, he was really emotional about you. You should have seen it" Naruto pulled the covers to the side, he had to see him, he had to talk to him.

"Stop" Naruto's body froze from the shout.

"You can't move anywhere the next week or two" Sakura said sternly. "Your body can't take it. Do you want to stay at the hospital for the remainder of your life? Because that is what will happen if you think you can just walk out of here before I give you permission to leave" Naruto softly leaned back into his bed and crossed his arms.

"Fine" he pouted.

Sasuke slammed the door to the Uchiha mansion and made the way to his bedroom. He closed the door and looked around his bedroom. It felt like such a long time since he last slept here. He leaned against the door and slid down to the grown. What was going on inside him? He was loosing control over everything and he didn't like it, he wanted it to stop. Naruto was back now, he was alive. Sasuke sighed, now he could relax and start getting over him. He needed to stop feeling like this, to stop caring for him.

They would just keep going on mission after mission and he would never survive going though this again. He needed to be emotionless before that happened. He couldn't just cut the bond he had with Naruto, he needed to burn it. Burn it until not even a single trace of these feelings were left inside him. He flopped down on his bed and crawled under the covers, he was still exhausted and he just wanted to sleep until he would forget everything that happened.

Naruto was twiddling his thumbs. It was so boring just staying here and he had only been awake for a day. He looked out the window. The sun had set a long time ago and the darkness had covered everything. He sighed loudly, why couldn't he just sleep. He closed his eyes and tried really hard to fall asleep, until a noise alerted him. He looked around the room and something bursts through the door. Naruto gasped at the sudden and rather violent act as the person was quickly by his side and touched his cheek.

"Aw" Naruto yelled rather annoyed at the person who had just pinched his cheek

"That hurt you bastard"

"You idiot" came the breathy response. Sasuke felt such a relief as he saw the surprise in those bright blue eyes faded and a pout forming on Naruto's lips.

"What are you doing here and why are you pinching a wounded person?"

"Just a... experiment". Naruto frowned

"What?"

"Get some sleep, you need it to get well again" Sasuke was slowly backing away from Naruto again, but Naruto quickly grabbed his wrist.

"Don't leave" Sasuke's heart begged him to stay beside Naruto, it couldn't handle how sad and alone Naruto looked at that moment, but Sasuke knew he had to get away.

"I'll see you sometime when you're well again so hurry up" It was too easy to remove Naruto's hand and Sasuke was soon out of the door again.

Sasuke tried to forget all about the nightmare he had just had. It had been horrible, he had dreamt Naruto got worse again and before he was fully awake he was already on his way to the hospital. He just had to go there and see with his own eyes that Naruto was well.

So what do you guys think will happen next?
